A High-performance Multi-scale Axe with Modern Features
The Jackson Pro Plus Series DK Modern MS HT6 is built for high-speed, down-tuned playing, by virtue of its multi-scale 25.5-inch to 26.5-inch scale length. And it sounds like an exploding nuke. Even before you plug it in, this solidbody electric guitar’s basswood body radiates warm, growling tones with defined mids that cut through a busy mix of rapid-fire drums and throbbing bass. And when you do plug it in, multi-voiced Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers churn out hard-hitting active and passive humbucker tones with ceramic and alnico magnets at your disposal. This Dinky’s hyper-ergonomic design is top-shelf all the way — its graphite-reinforced satin-finished neck and compound-radius ebony fingerboard are guaranteed to unleash the full potential of your playing. You’ll also benefit from rock-solid intonation, reliable tuning stability, and easy string changes, courtesy of this guitar’s Hipshot 6-to-18-degree fixed bridge and Gotoh locking tuners. Complete with aggressive-looking black hardware and an eye-catching gloss finish, the Jackson Pro Plus Series DK Modern MS HT6 provides a high-performance experience that contemporary guitarists are sure to appreciate.

Fast-playing 3-piece neck and compound-radius fingerboard
Jackson crafted the Pro Plus Series DK Modern MS HT6 to be a high-performance solidbody electric with maximum clarity, sustain, and sonic power. Its graphite-reinforced bolt-on 3-piece maple/wenge/maple neck boasts a hand-rubbed satin finish for maximum low-drag comfort, while its fast-playing ebony compound-radius fingerboard is the ideal platform for heavy riffing and high-speed soloing. Down low, your fretting hand will value the 12-inch radius that keeps things nice and comfortable for natural, relaxed chord work. Up top, a 16-inch radius lays it all out flat for effortless, low-action, lightning-fast runs and wide string bends without fretting out.
Fishman Fluence Moderns: multi-voice magic
The Pro Plus Series DK Modern MS HT6 comes loaded with multi-voice Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers for a vast assortment of tones. These pickups offer fierce active clarity for crushing high-gain tone, but they can also pivot tones to crisp, glassy cleans in seconds. Each Fishman Fluence Modern features a distinct magnet — alnico in the neck and ceramic in the bridge — so players can find ideal voices for leads, rhythms, and everything in between. Moreover, each pickup has an alternate voice available via push-pull pots; these voices bypass Fishman’s active preamp and deliver traditional passive humbucker tones that take tone arsenals to fresh extremes — all with just one guitar! You can explore six unique pickup voicings right out of the box. And the best part? Fishman Fluence Moderns accept optional lithium-ion battery packs for weeks of playing time without the eternal sticker shock of constant battery buys.
Multi-scale neck is tailor-made for high-speed, down-tuned playing
Multi-scale necks are tailor-made for down-tuned and technical playing. Their scale length is longer on the bass side of the instrument and shorter on the treble side, yielding better intonation, consistent tension, and equal attack between strings. Many guitarists here at Sweetwater have made the transition to multi-scale guitars. If you're into thunderous low-end chug and high-speed soloing, you owe it to yourself to try out one of these high-performance instruments.
